I have a few questions,

1) I am assuming no but im going to ask to make sure, Can you compress in gzip format?

2) I set my to backup every hour with date format Y-m-d-G but it creates another folder for each backup not really a big detail but I would prefer one folder for each day. Any possible way to do this?

3) Is there a way to automatically delete backups more than a week old?

4) For the exclude list for tables can you use wildcards like prefix_*?

Thanks
